Hi im new un this messageboard, I had visited before but only now decided to enter

I have some (problems?) with retin a hopefully you can help me

Things are so

Im using retin a since 3.5 weeks ago and i dont see to much results a little less acne and some redness in the face,I had explained that the product causes dehydration and skin peeling and if it happened to me but only on the lower side (near the mouth), not the part where I have acne (which is in the cheeks)

I do is the following:
1: I get retin a at night (after a bath)
2: In the morning when I wake up I wash my face and put me out sunscreen (sun protection factor 50)
and so for 3.5 weeks

I have seen results (few but results) but I know that may not work as I've read reviews and it seems that either takes too long or simply does not work

I would say it is true that work? thanks and greetings

P.D:I did not use a moisturizer, say a lot about using it online but I have not used is very important to use for the treatment outcomes?

P.D 2:sorry for the bad English but I'm from mexico and I speak Spanish (in addition to use Translator)

be patient , may take 2-3months to see results

yes it takes time, the website says to give it 12 weeks to see results. what's great is it works to improve your skin continuously, even scars. also, the directions say to avoid the delicate skin around your eyes, and also not put it on the skin around your lips or the folds of the nose (and you should not use more than a pea-size amount each time) i have not had any problematic peeling following those rules... when my skin gets a little dry i use a little moisturize, simple as that.
